About ChicoBagChicoBag Company is equipping humanity with tools that will help eliminate the environmental damage caused by single-use paper and plastic bags. ChicoBag has done this by designing reusable bags that are durable, tasteful and most importantly unforgettable. ChicoBag believes addressing even the largest of problems starts with small solutions.

In early 2004, Andy Keller, now ChicoBag president, took a trip to his local landfill after spending the day landscaping his backyard. He was horrified by what he saw. Single-use bags were the dominant article at the landfill that day, blanketing the landscape in a thin mix of white and beige plastic. On his way home he began to notice plastic bags everywhere, caught in trees and on fence posts, half drowned in gutter puddles and blowing in the streets like urban tumbleweeds. That day Andy vowed to stop using single-use bags. Inspired, Andy dropped a few bucks on a second hand sewing machine and began sewing what would ultimately become the first ChicoBag brand reusable bag.

Andy understood that a reusable bag was only valuable if it was reused. He knew his challenge was larger than designing any ordinary reusable bag – this reusable bag needed to be designed to be unforgettable. It needed to be small enough to tote in a pocket and have features that allowed it to clip anywhere.

After countless hours, fabrics and prototypes the Original ChicoBag brand reusable bag, complete with an integrated stuff pouch and attached carabiner, was born. Andy’s ChicoBag brand reusable bags were first sold in 2005 on Earth Day at the Farmers Market in Chico, CA. Initially only available in white, the Original has evolved to include eleven color choices.

In 2008, ChicoBag introduced trademarked rePETe products as part of an evolving effort to reduce our environmental impact. rePETe is a term ChicoBag uses to help their customers identify which ChicoBag brand products are made using recycled content. Every product with the rePETe logo is manufactured using recycled materials. ChicoBag's rePETe products bring them one step closer to providing consumers with a closed loop solution.

ChicoBag is now an industry leader in the compact reusable bag movement and a leading innovator of fashionable, lightweight, bags and packs that can be easily stuffed into an integrated pouch. ChicoBag delivers a wide array of reusable bags that are meant to deliver solutions to every lifestyle. ChicoBag's commitment to the environment drives them to provide a trusted brand and a portfolio of quality products aimed at helping humanity solve the environmental challenges ahead.

ChicoBag Headquarters Waste Diversion ProgramAfter listening to Dave Chameides (aka Sustainable Dave) talk about his decision not to throw anything away for an entire year, Andy Keller, ChicoBag President, thought, "hey I bet we can do that". That was the beginning of ChicoBag's waste diversion program. The average American contributes over 130 pounds of waste to a landfill per month - the entire ChicoBag office contributes less than 30! ChicoBag is proud to say that they have significantly reduced their waste stream. Each employee is responsible for sorting their personal waste into the appropriate recycling, compost, or landfill bins. With this system in place each employee's impact on the landfill is less than one pound per month! ChicoBag's compost is picked up by GRUB, our local CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and used to support their program of providing our community with fresh, local produce.
